Dou ya chao fan

Fried rice with bean sprouts is a traditional dish that's especially popular in Hangzhou. The dish is usually made with a combination of cooked rice, scallions, diced Jinhua ham, soy sauce, bean sprouts, oyster sauce, vegetable oil, and black pepper. The scallions are fried in a wok until soft, and then mixed with the ham, stir-fried, and mixed with the cooked and chilled rice. The oyster sauce, soy sauce, and pepper are added to the wok, the mixture is stir-fried a bit more, and the bean sprouts are added in the final few minutes of cooking. The dish is cooked until the bean sprouts are crisp, yet tender, and it's then served immediately, while still hot. Fried rice with bean sprouts is a beloved dish because the crunchiness of bean sprouts and the dry ham provide a great contrast to the rice.
